Actually, they have that - er, maybe, I think. I seem to recall, while researching data feeds, that somebody has an audio feed product called "Hoot and Holler". Wayne Van Scoyoc wrote: "What they really need is a mechanism to send real time taunts to others bidding and asking"

Wayne - You need AutEx or IOE. You can broadcast IOI's (indications of interest) to the entire network of subscribers or to a list that you define, with order specifics or as many are, simply indications. There are broker-dealer and institutional versions, and while 99% of them are buy, sell, traded, crossed, etc. messages, this is one of the few "weird" trading stories I have...one time a few years back, at maybe 6:00 at night, I actually saw a broadcast message w/phone number for some trader who was selling Spice Girls tickets, I seem to remember. So, if they were able to do that, your taunts could surely be accomodated. :) I actually remember another situation where a friend's firm removed the "Comments" field (you gotta know that's asking for trouble) from an old order management system electronic ticket because the comments that went back and forth often wound up being a bit on the resentful side...and all too often wholly unrelated to trading, LOL.
